The college’s Broad International Lecture Series and our geography and international affairs programs co-sponsor a talk by socio-environmental activist Marina Silva on the challenges and needs for preserving the Amazon and its indigenous population in the context of current Brazilian and global crises.
Silva is an environmentalist, teacher and politician. She competed as a candidate for the Brazilian presidency in 2010, 2014 and 2018 after serving as Brazil’s Minister of the Environment from 2003 to 2008. As a politician, she was elected as the youngest federal senator in 1994 and founded her own Sustainability Network Party in 2013. Silva has gained worldwide recognition for defending the environment, traditional communities, social justice and sustainable development.
